Win $100 cash and weekend passes to Junkstock on Momaha.com.
The World-Herald's parenting site will give away several admission tickets away, including one grand prize winner who will gain entry and receive $100 cash at the door. Register to win.
If you love vintage, up-cycled and repurposed items, you won't want to miss Junkstock this weekend.
More than 70 "junk" vendors from five states will meet at an old dairy farm at 315 S. 192nd St. to sell their vintage treasures, antiques and artisan-made pieces. Here are the details:
How does it work?
Each vendor will bring his or her own twist on repurposing items, which will include vintage jewelry and children's clothing made from recycled materials and home decor made from scrap metal. The event also will feature live music, food and a play area for kids with a bounce house, balloons, face-painting and harvest-themed crafts.
What kind of "junk" will be at the event?
Architectural salvage, farm-fresh finds, rescued junque and cottage shabby chic — those are just some of the categories of items you will find. You can also visit www.junkstockomaha.com to get a better idea.
Who came up with the idea for the event?
Junkstock is the brainchild of Sara Alexander of Papillion's Junque Factory, but other hosts include Scout: Dry Goods & Trade in Dundee, Admiral District and Momaha.com, The World-Herald's social networking website for moms.
What kind of food will be there?
Get hot apple cider, Caribbean jerk barbecue, wood-fired pizza, rounders or one of many other options. Vendors are Locomotive Food Truck, Lindsey Enterprises, Smoke 'N Pizza and Mockingbird Cupcakes.
Which bands are performing?
Brad Hoshaw, Midwest Dilemma, Ray Michael, Platte River Rain, Southpaw Bluegrass Band, Matt Cox, Jessica Errett, Manouche Moustache, One Eye White, Orion Walsh & The Rambling Hearts, Prairie Gators, Sans Banjo and Sarah Benck, among others.
What's the cost?
There is a $5 admission fee. Children under 12 are free. Weekend passes are available for $12. A portion of the admission fees will be donated to the Creutzfeldt-Jakobs Disease Foundation and The Dragonfly Project, a nonprofit group offering support to those grieving a death.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "A very tight and quite reticent nose displays reluctant notes of tidal pool, lemon rind and green fruit. The rich, full-bodied and intense flavors possess fine mid-palate density that coats the mouth on the overtly austere and robust finish that is linear, tangy, clean and dry. As is also usually..
Cellar/Tasting Notes This family-run estate, taken over by the Jouard brothers, Vincent and Francois, in 1990, existed before 1820. One of the rare domaines to specialize in this appellation, they only bottle part of their production, and still act as grape growers for some famous houses. Francois is the winemaker and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes
The Puligny Montrachet is characterized by very distinctive aromas : almond, fern, exotic fruit, amber and white flowers. The acidity in the mouth is rather subtle.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Les Charmes is a sumptuous, elegant white burgundy. The clay soil provides a rich and generous wine that is every bit as as invigorating as it is fresh.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Les Genevrieres presents as a wine of great finesse and power. A wonderful representation of a Premier Cru in Meursault, this refined wine provides invigoration that is wonderfully balanced with freshness. A true beauty to behold and indulge in.
Cellar/Tasting Notes A true sensation from Domaine Hubert Chavy-Chouet!
A wine that emulates the elegance and refinement of a classic white burgundy, the 2011 Folatieres is rich, opulent and profound.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts" is a rich opulent chardonnay with aromas of various fruit.
This great white wine is destined to honour haute cuisine : shellfish cooked in a court-bouillon, creamed and poached fish, poultry liver pâtés, ripe cheeses like Munster and mature..

Quite possibly...I had thought that the runtime they released in BBWorld was unlocked, as it indeed fixed some issues I had with other side-loads. But, perhaps it's not truly unlocked. When I get time, I'll need to do some more experimenting...hmm, "spare time", what a concept!

Cornmeal Pancakes Recipe
- 1-1/3 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
- 2/3 cup cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 1-1/3 cups milk
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- Pancake syrup
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
- Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a lightly greased hot griddle. Turn when bubbles form on top; cook until the second side is golden brown. Serve with syrup. Yield: 4 servings.
Reviews for Cornmeal Pancakes(20)
Sort By :
These were soo good! I was really not expecting it to come out so well. I did add the 1 tsp of vanilla extract as many other reviewers suggest and I think it did help. The pancakes were not grainy like many things that have cornmeal and were a beautiful even brown. Will definitely make again
I thought they were great.I want to try them with brown sugar.
Great texture and taste. Makes a huge batch!! The left overs heated up great the next day. I popped them in the toaster oven on warm for 15 min and flipped half-way thru.
These were wonderful! But take note, it makes A LOT of pancakes! They are best hot off the griddle. We made on a night when serving chili and not wanting to heat the oven for corn muffins. I d id take the suggestion of adding a tsp of vanilla. Very yummy, melt in your mouth!
I halved the recipe. Reduced the salt. Resist the urge to add extra sugar if you'll be using syrup. They were very fluffy--I did open a new can of baking powder, so if yours are not fluffy maybe you need a new can of BP or you over mixed the batter. The texture was weird for me because of the cornmeal grit. Delicious though. Will make again if I'm wanting non-traditional pancakes.

The Jewish Reconstructionist Federation is delighted to welcome Temple Israel of Duluth, MN, as its newest member community, and the third Reconstructionist-affiliated congregation in Minnesota. With the spirited leadership of Rabbi Amy Bernstein, the 200-household congregation is excited about joining the Reconstructionist Movement.
Rabbi Shawn Zevit, JRF's Director of Outreach and Tikkun Olam, who helped facilitate the affiliation process, said, "It is wonderful to welcome Temple Israel into our network of Reconstructionist member communities. We have been in dialogue for a few years together, and there was clearly interest in our approach to Jewish life, in no small part because of the inspirational spirit of Rabbi Amy Bernstein.
In our experience at JRF, communities that really commit to the educational process of affiliation in an open and involved way across the congregation or havurah, are transformed by that process in terms of the clarity and vision of their shared mission. Temple Israel spent the better part of last year working with us and internally to study Reconstructionism, involving the entire community in their decision-making process. This is Jewish values-based decision-making and democratic, participatory process—hallmarks of Reconstructionist Judaism at its best."
Rabbi Bernstein, a 1997 graduate of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College, has been Temple Israel's rabbi for 10 years. "For me, it's been very interesting to watch the congregation develop and see the Shabbat morning minyan shaped and informed by Reconstructionism. Our movement is answering a genuine need of Jews today and I am excited about the potential," Bernstein said.
Temple Israel's president, Michael Rosenzweig, expressed his enthusiasm for the new relationship. "We're very excited to be a part of the Reconstructionist Movement and all that it has to offer us," he said.
Temple Israel's roots go back to the late 1800s. Jewish settlers arrived in the Duluth area as early as 1850. In 1885, the first Reform congregation was incorporated and by 1915 there was one Reform congregation, four Orthodox congregations, and the forerunner of what was to become a Conservative congregation in Duluth. In 1951, a Jewish Community Center was built to serve the social, cultural, and educational needs of the area. At its peak the Jewish population of the area numbered 3,000-3,500 people—now there are approximately 800-900 Jews in the Duluth area. With the decrease in population, the Reform and Conservative congregations merged in 1971 and created Temple Israel. Temple Israel is the only liberal congregation in Duluth. The congregation (which is also affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism) completed a year-long process towards a majority vote on applying for dual affiliation with JRF last December.
Members of Temple Israel play an active role in the community at large and Rabbi Bernstein serves as a link between the Jewish community and Duluth/Northeastern Minnesota. The congregation has a vibrant religious school, which has seen its enrollment grow in recent years, as well as an active havurah membership. Currently, six groups of 10-25 persons each meet regularly to provide extended families for congregants who came from other areas and to help meet the social and intellectual needs of a wide range of Jewish residents.
We know that Temple Israel will add to the dynamism of our movement, and look forward to sharing more about them with our kehillah.

Just like the tender shoots of a garden, businesses are emerging to help people realize their "child of God" status. Only problem is, they're finding it isn't easy to make the green by simply being green. Three of the five eco-retailers profiled in City Weekly's 2010 Green Guide, for example, are already out of business. It's a risky time to launch a niche business, and consumers are more careful than ever in how they spend their hard-earned dollars.
Thus, those sustainably minded businesses that have survived know some stuff. City Weekly asked them about the secrets of their success and also asked what consumers should look for when trying to buy/live green. The Green Giants, as well as articles that follow on Sharing Backyards, CSAs and growing in small spaces with a limited budget, will help get you back to the garden post haste.
Home Builders
Tall Pines Construction
Tall Pines Construction in Park City recently finished the Sungazing House in Silver Creek. With Utah's only LEED Platinum certification, it's Utah's greenest home, says Tall Pines owner Garrett Strong. It just won the national Green Home of the Year award in Green Builder Magazine. The company has other energy-efficient green homes, too. "In the design, we're making sure we get passive solar heat gain—that's how we get 90 percent of the house's heat," Strong says. The remainder comes from solar voltaic and site-specific means of alternative energy. Beyond design, Tall Pines contracts with a recycler to minimize its waste, uses recycled glass for 50 percent of the foundation and donates items to Habitat for Humanity's ReStore—a nonprofit retailer of used home-building materials.
"The key component to finding the right builder is finding one that takes [sustainable building design] classes and is, overall, showing an interest and willingness to learn," Strong says. "Experience is a big indicator, because, otherwise, [the builder] might need a consultant or an energy engineer."
435-640-5136, TallPinesConstruction.com
Real Estate & Eco-Brokers
SLC Green Homes
There are approximately 6,000 licensed Realtors in Salt Lake City—only six of whom are eco-brokers. The certification means completing a three-day course in indoor-air quality, energy use and the like, along with annually maintaining the accreditation. While eco-brokers still meet the hectic deadlines of traditional Realtors in the home buying/selling process, they add another level of diligence. Beverly Hanson, owner of SLC Green Homes, says, "With that training, we're more capable of helping buyers, sellers and homeowners identify and improve efficiencies in the home." Hanson is a real-estate agent who specializes in building science and offers home-energy-performance assessments—free with the closing on a home. This three-hour assessment is generally performed after a purchase, but can be done before or during. Hanson also guides new buyers on how to take advantage of state-offered rebates for energy upgrades.
Hanson recommends that those deciding among eco-brokers check up on their current certifications, which are a clear sign of dedication. "Ask what ongoing education they've received and what organizations they belong to," she says.

AMD Architecture
"I got into architecture for the people, not for the buildings," says Angela Dean, owner of AMD Architecture. Since founding her company in 1997, she's melded solid design with healthy, energy-efficient spaces for off-the-grid desert dwellings, offices and city homes and remodels. Because of the nature of green building, Dean thinks it's important to increase her onsite visits above the norm for architectural services—to answer questions, track down materials, etc. While the building market has suffered during the recent recession, green projects are expanding, Dean says.
For those scouting for a green architect, Dean says, "Research is key: Find a record of experience. Also, find someone who is open to listening to [your] unique demands."

Building Materials
Underfoot Floors
There are a lot of choices in flooring: carpet, linoleum, cork, bamboo, wood, tile or stone. Some options are more environmentally sound than others, like carpets with synthetic fibers or acid-cured finishes. Step into Underfoot Floors, an industry specialist with 10 years of experience, which vigorously screens for the most Earth-friendly flooring, including finishes with low amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and soy-based carpet pads for retail sales. Underfoot also provides residential and commercial installation. Underfoot also significantly cuts down on waste, which general manager Kathrine Stringer identifies as the industry's biggest problem. Underfoot orders per installation and as minimally as possible, reducing waste from the onset. Any product left over is used for samples.
Stringer recommends those looking for building materials and a supplier "be wary of green washing—many products are presented as environmentally friendly, but that's a vague term," she says, adding that a specialist, rather than a general contractor, will be more knowledgeable for that aspect of the process.

Pest Management
Wasatch Natural
With World War II came synthetic pesticides like DDT that have lingering harmful effects on the ecosystem. Before synthetic pesticides were developed, pesticides were made from chrysanthemum, soy and other plant roots and botanicals. Alonzo Thayn, owner of Wasatch Natural, is bringing back that old-school method. The 5-year-old company provides organic pest management as well as lawn and tree fertilization. The products are all USDA Organic certified or OMRI listed—designations that Thayn trusts the most. When choosing a green pest management company, he recommends asking for product certifications and not relying strictly on broad definitions of "natural."

Solar Energy
Utah Solar & Alternative Energy
Much of America's electricity is lost as it moves along the grid, but it doesn't have to be. "The technology and wherewithal is available to change our grid and make people net producers instead of net consumers," says Utah Solar & Alternative Energy owner Joe Raycraft, who's installed solar voltaic systems for homes and businesses for five years. His main focus now is battery-based grid-tied systems, which, he says, is the most practical because it allows access to the grid in case of power outages. He says an average three-kilowatt system costs around $15,000-$20,000 and takes two to three weeks to install.
Raycraft, who drives vegetable-oil-powered vehicles, says recycling is a priority for him. "If a solar-energy company doesn't recycle, that's a pretty good indication they're in it for the money," he says.

Home Cleaning
Eco-Star Green Cleaning
After launching her home-cleaning business in April 2010, Stacie Holyoak—like many home cleaners—knew from her headaches and dry skin that conventional cleaning products were unhealthy for her. She started using the Waxy Green Line of completely biodegradable products in her work and, now fully green, Eco-Star offers regular or one-off residential and commercial cleanings. Carpet cleaning is outsourced to local Green Clean (801-889-1041), which specializes in using only eco-friendly and organic cleaners on carpets.
Holyoak cautions against using cleaning companies who claim they are "eco-friendly" because they car pool or use routing software to cut down miles in transport, yet buy conventional cleaners to save the fuel of shipping water weight. She recommends asking cleaners for a materials data safety sheet for ingredient information.
999 Murray Holladay Road, Suite 109, Murray, 855-971-5195, EcoStarCleaning.com
Sage's Way
After taking a permaculture class in 2005, Chase Fetter, owner of Sage's Way, was inspired to go beyond his original focus of xeriscaping—a method of landscaping that emphasizes local plants and reduces the need for supplemental watering—and began making clients' properties more self-reliant regarding growing food. Now, 9 out of 10 designs include edibles in raised-bed gardens or fruit trees. Fetter's 10-year-old business uses smart water controls to monitor sprinklers and irrigators as seasons change. It has a Certified Natural Gas vehicle and only uses organic fertilizers. A subsidiary, Eco-Lawn Care, uses renewable-energy-powered mowers—offset by wind credit. Because of Utah's desert environs, Fetter recommends asking "what a landscaper is doing to save on water usage, first and foremost."
801-573-8934, SagesWay.net
Green Painting of Utah
Joel Marsh, owner of Green Painting of Utah, doesn't hold the corner on the market, he says. With access to the same water-based, low-VOC and soy-based paints as anyone else, for him, green is mainly a frame of mind. "We recycle the majority of our buckets, reuse paint from other jobs and mix mis-tinted paints for primers," Marsh says. He uses green paints for 80 percent to 90 percent of surface area. On exteriors, green paint lasts half as long as regular oil-based paints, so it's a trade off. He informs his clients of the cost-benefit analysis and is open to their decisions on specific materials. He recommends looking for this willingness in a painter.

Mid-Hudson News (New York) - $2 million in stimulus funds for new Warwick Village water filtration
More federal stimulus funds are starting to flow and $2 million of that is flowing to the Village of Warwick to correct its problem of a contaminated drinking well.
Congressman John Hall came to the village Monday to announce the grant, which he said will vastly improve the water supply to the village.
The money from Washington will provide for the construction of a micro-filtration plant and in the process, employ 25 people. [3/8/10]
WTEN ABC-10 (New York) - Albany Medical College receives 10 million dollar grant
Albany Medical College receives the largest grant in its history, to expand its research opportunities. 10 million dollars in stimulus money will be coming to Albany Medical College, to fund major expansion of bio-medical research, which the school's staff says has an impact far beyond the Capital Region.
'These are investments in the betterment of society and providing health consumers with new options not yet on the radar screen,' says Congressman Paul Tonko.
'Biomedical technology in the future is absolutely going to be a big job industry in the whole of the United States,' adds Congressman Scott Murphy. 'Particularly here in the Capital Region, we've got a lot of great research going on, and this new facility is going to allow more of that to happen here at Albany Medical Center.'
Construction is expected to take two and a half years and create 50 jobs throughout the process. Once completed, the medical school plans to add 10 research scientists to its staff. [3/8/10]
California Chronicle - $84 Million in Recovery Act Funds Heading to California
Congressman John Garamendi (D-Walnut Creek, CA) is pleased to report that the Department of Transportation announced nearly $84 million in transportation projects for California out of more than $600 million in projects nationwide.
'Once again, where local and state governments are unable to afford needed transportation improvements, we see the federal government stepping up in a big way,' Congressman Garamendi said. 'The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act continues to put our country on a path to recovery through smart investments in transportation, education, health services, and other sectors, creating jobs for people throughout our communities. There is much more to do to fix our economy, but let there be no doubt, without ARRA, we would be in much worse shape and countless more Americans would currently be unemployed.' [3/9/10]
The Union Leader (New Hampshire) - Officials: Stimulus helped NH retain jobs
New Hampshire has used its $708 million in federal stimulus funding to create more than 2,000 jobs, pay for scores of road projects, upgrade health centers, fund research projects at universities and provide public schools with computers and supplies.
Since the Recovery Act was signed into law in February 2009, more than $540 million has gone directly into the state treasury to fund infrastructure projects, schools and other government agencies. Another $167 million went to counties, health centers, housing authorities and universities.
Chris Clement, director of the state Office of Economic Stimulus, said New Hampshire used $146.5 million specifically to prevent state employee layoffs.
Called the 'State Fiscal Stabilization Fund,' this pool of stimulus money created or saved 1,264 jobs in education and 463 jobs in other state government agencies last year, he said. [3/8/10]
EmpireStateNews.net (New York) - Nearly $2.2 million awarded to Tompkins County for new buses
Tompkins County has been awarded $2.175 million in federal economic recovery money to purchase six new, modern 40 foot buses that will meet the new 2010 emission standards for diesel buses. The county will lease the buses to TCAT (Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit).
'This economic recovery funding will take six very outdated buses off the roads of Tompkins County and replace them with modern, efficient buses that will serve local residents well,' Congressman Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) said. 'This federal economic recovery funding will spare local taxpayers the cost associated with purchasing these much-needed buses, which play a critical role in the county's transportation system.

San Mateo Daily Journal (California) - Speier inspects stimulus projects
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier got a firsthand look yesterday at where millions in federal stimulus money is being spent in her district by visiting a massive construction project at San Francisco International Airport, an energy technology company in South San Francisco and a group of nonprofit leaders in San Mateo who have all benefited from the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
Stimulus money has gone toward sustainability projects in the county, capital projects at the airport and has helped keep families from being evicted from their homes by accessing nonprofit agency services. Recovery Act funds have also gone toward keeping teachers employed in Daly City, research at the University of California San Francisco, job training in the county and maintaining jobs at SamTrans and Caltrain.

Drug rehab centers are places where people suffering from drug addiction problems are treated. These are people who do not have any control over their intake of drugs. They tend to have developed an uncontrolled dependence on drugs, substance, or alcohol. Drug addiction does not just affect young people; it affects people from all walks of life. Teenagers, the old members of the society, the young adults, and even both genders; men and women.
Drug rehab centers are therefore, divided into a number of groups- women, men, and teenage drug centers. Women drug rehab centers concentrate on women alone. Women who suffer from drug addiction are on the increase lately. Most of them are falling victim of drug addiction through peer influence or due to conditions such as depression and pain.
Another group is the one for teenagers. Ages between 13 and 19. This is considered as the most affected group. Children at this age are more prone to drug addiction. Many of them are influenced by their peers as well as their own parents who suffer from drug addiction. Finally, there are some specific drug rehab centers which offer unique services for the men in the society who are drug addicts.
Who Needs A Drug Rehab?
A drug is described as a substance that alters the functional systems of the body. There are drugs that are used to cure diseases, but at the same time, some drugs are used to alter the system of the body functions in a different unhealthy way. This is called drug abuse and is a common occurrence with the youth who easily get influenced by their peers. Some of the categories of drugs are stimulants like nicotine and cannabis, depressants like alcohol, cocaine, morphine, codeine and heroine. There are hallucinogens like mescaline and marijuana, and lastly, solvents that include glue, petrol and paint thinner. If a user of these drugs is not taken to a drug rehab, they may develop serious complications that may end in death.
All the mentioned drugs cause drastic side effects in the user. Some of these are excitement, unclear speech, restlessness, tremors insomnia, bad breath, dizziness, confusion, agitation, blood pressure, euphoria, depression to mention just a few. In some instances, those who abuse drugs have been known to turn very violent and harm or kill their fellows. Those who get depressed too, have been known to commit suicide. Anytime a parent or a concerned party notices any strange behavior, and feels it could be a misuse of drugs, the only way out is to recommend a drug rehab. The earlier, the better.

Former STAR reporter Steve Burwick dies
From Staff Reports
Former Elizabethton STAR reporter Steve Burwick died Sunday, Feb. 24, after a short battle with cancer.
Burwick worked at the newspaper from October 2005 to August 2011 before leaving the STAR to accept a position with the Elizabethton/Carter County Chamber of Commerce.
Burwick, who was currently employed with Warren Lamb and Associates, had been battling a brain tumor.
Burwick was a 2005 graduate of Milligan College, where he earned a degree in communication/journalism.
In addition, Burwick worked as a photographer for the STAR from 1989 to 1994.
He and his wife, Debbie, had been married since Oct. 28, 1989. In addition to his wife, he is survived by a daughter and son-in-law, April and Chris Chatman, and two grandsons, Jesse James Chatman and Marshall Colton Chatman.
During his time with the Elizabethton STAR, Burwick worked as the Carter County reporter. He covered county government as well as the ongoing effort of the Watauga River Regional Water Authority to bring water to far-flung points in the county.
Last December, representatives from the WRRWA presented Burwick with a plaque thanking him for his years of service.
"For your years of professionalism covering news for Watauga River Regional Water Authority, we would like to thank you for your contributions to our company and the community," said WRRWA Chairman Johnny Mills as he presented Burwick with the award.
In addition, Burwick wrote a column, "Ponderings," for the newspaper for several years.
His final "Ponderings" column, which was published Sept. 11, 2012, reflected on his cancer diagnosis.
"None of us has a clue when we will take our last breath," he wrote. "Like the words of the Tim McGraw song, each of us ought to savor every moment and 'live like we were dying.' Seriously, life is meant to be lived as an adventure! Why do we waste our time over trivial pursuits and petty grievances? We were placed upon this earth for a deeper purpose. I hope to be open to every opportunity to encourage others, to make people laugh, to be a witness to the power of God in my life … to live in the moment, without regrets."
Arrangements will be announced at a later date.

This majestic rhythm was brought from Channel One to Wackies by Sugar Minott.
First to voice it was Jah Batta his bathetic version makes a comic interlude in Chris Coy's 1983 film about the label, when he mimes the lyrics to his companion, strolling in the park originally released on Junior Delahayes Sun Force label, the production credited to Batta, aka Tony Omeally. (The flip was the Jezzreel cut here, reworking The Upsetters classic Fever b-line. Even this you need.)
Max Romeos myth-making is more in tune with the genius of the rhythm. The song appeared originally on his album One Horse Race, mastered in London at PRT, and issued in New York on the Island In The Sun imprint, in 1985.

While great products can attract business, your attitude determines whether customers buy from you or not. In sales, you must make a commitment to first making sure you and your employees have a positive attitude before you focus on process or product.
Let me share with you a stellar example of a great attitude. I saw a beautiful jacket on display in a shop window and was so intrigued by it that I went inside to have a closer look. I asked the clerk the price, which she told me as she helped me slip the jacket on. Admiring my reflection in the mirror, I protested that the price was insane and added that I didn't even need the thing. With an understanding and beautiful smile, she said: "No one buys a jacket like this because they need it. They buy it because it's beautiful and it makes them feel good." Melting in the truth of her statement, I asked: "Do you take AmEx?"
The ability to be positive at all times is the one thing that will ensure you're a winner in the end. When you are positive, people will find you irresistible. Here are some helpful suggestions that I've used in my life when I wanted to make sure I had a beaming, positive attitude:
1. Visualize the deal first. You have to see the customer taking ownership before they do. The sale starts with you, not with them. I remind myself of this before I ever get in front of a customer. The way I do this is to talk in terms of when, not if. For example, "When you do this with me, you will get this result." If a customer is undecided about a sale, I tell them: "It's only a matter of time before you do this with me." I recently did this with a customer and after the third time he said: "Dude, you are pretty confident, I like how you keep assuming the sale."
2. Find out what the buyer has done in the past. This will always result in understanding how your prospect is a buyer. For example, I once asked a customer: "When is the last time you invested money in a product like this?" He told me about the three times he did this and then I asked, "What did you like and not like about each decision?" Every answer provided me with vital information -- his buyer DNA, if you will -- to make the sale.
3. Consider every customer a million-dollar sale. Treat people like millionaires and they will act like millionaires. Do this regardless of how the customer acts. One of my clients from Colorado Springs told me he would not spend money on my product and that it was a waste of time. I treated him like a millionaire and told him I wanted to fly into Colorado Springs and see him, regardless.
Nothing in your life will pay you more rewards than your ability to have and maintain a great attitude. People will remember you not for how much money you made or for your success, but for how you handled life and made others feel. Your attitude and your ability to have a positive influence on the attitudes of others will affect not only your sales, but every area of your life: your marriage, kids, health, wealth and luck. You name it, and a great attitude will affect it.

Valpo's Macchi Selected PFL Co-Offensive Player of the Week
Monday, October 27, 2003Valpo's David Macchi was selected as the Pioneer Football League Co-Offensive Player of the Week following the Crusaders' 51-45 overtime victory over Drake on Saturday. The senior from San Jose, Calif./Willow Glen shared the award with Drake's Jonathan Taylor. The PFL honor is the second for Macchi who shared the honor with teammate Rob Giancola after Valpo's win over Dayton Oct. 11.
For the second straight week, Macchi tied a school record with five touchdown passes and rushed for one as Valpo clinched a share of the PFL North title and the right to host the PFL Championship Game against Morehead State Nov. 22. He amassed 449 total yards and became Valpo's all-time leader in total offense (6,623 yards), surpassing Nick Browder (6,604, 1993-96). Macchi completed 27-of-48 passes for 420 yards, including touchdown passes of 63, 14, 13, 7 and 24 yards. The 24-yarder to Giancola in overtime proved to be the game-winner. He also rushed for 29 yards, including a 6-yard touchdown. He was responsible for 42 of Valpo's points.

Ray Horton: Interviews with Cardinals, Browns and Bills have gone well
Thought to be a likely candidate to replace Ken Whisenhunt in Arizona, Horton has already twice interviewed with Cardinals president Michael Bidwill as well as the Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills.
And, as Arizona Sports 620's Kyndra de St. Aubin is reporting, all three interviews went well.
Horton thought interview w/ Cards went really well & felt he didnt say anything or do anything 2 lose job— Kyndra de St. Aubin (@Kyndra620) January 2, 2013
Horton thought interview w/ Browns went extremely well-they called his agent after interview & said it was outstanding— Kyndra de St. Aubin (@Kyndra620) January 2, 2013
Horton says interview with Bills also went really well. Rapid fire question & answer session. Felt good about it.— Kyndra de St. Aubin (@Kyndra620) January 3, 2013
St. Aubin also tweeted Horton has not yet heard from two other prominent teams that are in search of a new head coach.
As of Wednesday evening Horton has still not heard from his agent about SD or Chiefs.— Kyndra de St. Aubin (@Kyndra620) January 3, 2013
Horton interviewed for the St. Louis Rams vacancy last season, with the team brass apparently leaving very impressed. While he has been a coordinator for just two seasons, many believe he is ready to take over a team.
Monday, before news of Whisenhunt's dismissal was made public, some Cardinals players expressed hope Horton would not be leaving for a job somewhere else.

New picoprojector converts light more
Researchers from North Carolina State
University, in conjunction with ImagineOptix, have created a new
technology capable of converting nonpolarized light into polarized
light. This development almost doubles the efficiency of projectors
that use liquid-crystal (LC) technology. The benefits: smaller,
cheaper and more capable projectors with longer battery life and
lower heat levels.
Polarized light vibrates repeatedly in the same
direction, while non-polarized light has no particular preference
to the direction in which it vibrates. The conversion process
usually entails passing the unpolarized light through a filter that
wastes sometimes more than 50% of the original light and creates a
significant amount of heat. This new technology allows for about
90% of the light to actually be converted and as a result applied
to the projector.
Researchers are calling the new technology a
polarization grating-polarization conversion system (PGPCS) and
believe it will provide more energy-efficient capabilities in LC
The technology can be used to create a
"picoprojector" that can be integrated into a
device such as a cell phone or tablet. "We purposefully
designed our technology (PGPCS) and the picoprojector concept with
mass production as the goal," said Erin Clark, CEO of
Developing the module into one of these devices
can take anywhere from three to twelve months, depending on the
device's individual needs, but the picoprojectors are
already being produced in quantities of up to one million per
How it works
Dr. Michael Escuti, associate professor at NC
State, and a team of researchers designed this picoprojector with
just four parts: two sets of lenses, a polarization grating, and a
louvered wave plate.
The nonpolarized light passes through the first
set of lenses, which creates a grid of spots. Then the light
travels through the polarization grating, including a layer of
liquid crystal on a glass plate. The louvered wave plate creates
the unified polarization of the light, which finally passes through
the second set of lenses where it forms into one beam.
Future application
The prototype projector is already being adopted
by several companies that are expected to display at The
International CES 2013 in January.
"The technology is a
'platform technology' in the truest of senses,
meaning there are hundreds of applications such as telecom, pico
projection, microscopy, spectroscopy, and others. It's as
fundamental and universally applicable as a common lens,"
said Clark.
Keep an eye out, as picoprojectors are expected
to reach the market in 2013. ■

Lecture and Film Series to Open Medieval Mystery
For Immediate Release
October 04, 2004
The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute will kick off the fall exhibition Medieval Mystery: Who is the Master of the Embroidered Foliage with an opening lecture on Saturday, October 9, at 3 p.m. Michael Cassin, curator of education, will give the introductory lecture. On Sunday, October 10, at 2 p.m., the related film series "Medieval Mysteries" will begin with a screening of Eric Rohmer's 1978 film, Perceval (140 minutes, French with English subtitles). Admission to both programs is free.
The lecture will be followed by a members-only reception. New members are welcome. For more information on membership, call 413-458-0425.
The film series will be offered every Sunday at 2 p.m. through December 12. All films in the series are set in late medieval Europe. Scheduled films in October are: Brother Sun, Sister Moon (1973, 120 minutes), a "proto-hippie" retelling of the life of St. Francis set to the music of Donovan, on October 17; The Name of the Rose (1986, 30 minutes) starring Sean Connery in an adaptation of Umberto Eco's bestseller on October 24; and Andrei Rublev (1966, 185 minutes, Russian with subtitles), the classic story of a Russian icon painter, on October 31.
Future films will include The Lion in Winter, The Seventh Seal, and The Return of Martin Guerre. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.
The 15th-century Netherlandish painter known only as The Master of the Embroidered Foliage is best recognized for his panel paintings of the Virgin and Child. The virtually identical compositions depict Mary in voluminous robes, seated on a throne while the Christ child in her arms leafs through an illustrated manuscript. The backgrounds of these detailed panels vary greatly from landscape to city streets. All are rich in palette and pattern and are finely painted with great detail. Medieval Mystery: Who is The Master of the Embroidered Foliage? brings together for the first time four of these works from public and private collections in the United States, Belgium, and France, including the painting from the Clark's collection. An innovative presentation encourages visitors to participate in solving the mysteries of this artist.
The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

After winning his 100th cap for England in September's goalless draw against Ukraine, Frank Lampard will captain the national side in tomorrow night's friendly against Chile at Wembley, and the Chelsea midfielder is understandably looking forward to what will be a special occasion.
Two months ago, Lampard became only the eighth player to reach the 100-cap mark for England, and the 35-year-old, whose two daughters will be mascots at Wembley, will be presented with a golden cap prior to kick-off by his father, Frank senior, and Geoff Hurst.
'It will be very special, 100 caps was a long time coming, I've seen gold caps rightly given to Stevie (Steven Gerrard) and Ashley (Cole) and I'm very proud,' he said. 'The idea to involve Sir Geoff was an FA idea, which I was obviously very happy with as I've had links to him my whole life, with my dad knowing him and what an England hero he is.
'I requested my dad be involved because there aren't many international father and sons, it's the sort of thing he'd normally shy away from but with a bit of pressing he's managed to get himself out there and hopefully he'll be a very proud dad.'
There is plenty of football to be played between now and the time when Roy Hodgson names his squad for the World Cup finals in Brazil, and Lampard went on to speak about the competition for places within the group.
'It will be very tough, it's a great position for the manager to be in because a few years ago we were asking where the youth was and the exciting players who were going to create chances and score goals for us,' said Chelsea's all-time highest scorer.
'We've watched them all come in, step up and play great games. These young boys have come in with no fear and they're adding something to the squad. Every player is in the manager's thoughts, not just the ones that are here today.
'It's up to every individual to stake a claim, there's a big gap now until the next England game so we have to put everything into these games and then go away and perform for our clubs as best we can.'
England have fared well against the top sides in recent years, with victories against Brazil, Italy and Spain, and Lampard believes the next two games, with the Chile fixture preceding next week's match against Germany, are the perfect type of tests looking ahead to next summer.
'I hope to play against Germany as much as every player in the squad does, I'm fortunate enough to captain the team tomorrow but come the Germany game on Tuesday we'll all want to be involved,' he said.
'They're two very exciting friendlies because they test us. The South American style is different to what we're used to playing against, so that tests us, and what more can an England player want than to play against the old enemy Germany at Wembley while we're playing well and on a good run?'
Hodgson had earlier confirmed Lampard will skipper the side, and the manager also stated Ashley Cole and Leighton Baines will share left-back responsibilities over the course of the two games.
'It's a pleasure to say Frank will lead the team out as captain tomorrow night. He'll be receiving his 100th cap, although it will be his 103rd game,' said the manager.
'He'll be receiving the cap from his father and Geoff Hurst so it will be a great occasion and we look forward to that.
'It's nice to have such good players to choose from. I'd have a bigger headache if I was wondering where I could find a left-back good enough to play for England.
'I will use one in one game and one in the other. I have enormous faith in both of them and think they're fantastic, quality players.'

Make a payment feature
The Make a payment feature lets you pay for your charges at any time, with any form of payment that's available to you with your account's country and currency settings. Learn how to use it. Note: you must set up automatic payments before you can make a manual payment.
If you're on automatic payments, you're not required to use the Make a payment feature unless you need to pay off a declined automatic payment. In that case, we'll email you and let you know what steps to take.
However, you can choose to use Make a payment any time you want more flexibility in when you're charged and what you pay with. For example, you can choose to pay your entire account balance or just a fraction of it. If you want to pay with a new form of payment, or divide your balance among several forms of payment, you can easily do so.
What happens if I initiate a payment for more than my balance?
You can initiate a payment for an amount greater than your balance at any time. If you do so, you prevent yourself from being charged until the extra payment amount has been depleted and you've reached the end of your next billing cycle.
When you pay for more than your account balance, you create a negative balance in your account. A negative balance means that there are funds remaining to cover future costs.
